Im gettin pretty serious about collecting and finding different systems. I need to know where to look. Pleaze help me...

There's basically two routes you can take.

1) Buy one particular system at a time - think of one you want, go buy it on eBay or forums or another online store. You'll find what you want quickly and easily, but you pay top dollar for it.

2) Go out in the wild (garage sales, flea markets, thrifts) and buy whatever you can find. It will take a while  to find exactly what you want, but it will be cheap and you never know what else you might find in the process.

There's also a kind of a middle ground of using Craigslist, post a wanted ad for the system(s) you want and wait for a reply. You could get lucky and get it for next to nothing or you might be able to find one at current value.

Well, the best days for the yard sales is Fri. and Sat. but i do not get to go to them very often because my mom works on Saturdays, and i dont think she'd let me go alone...Ive seen craigslist and ebay, but have never used them before.

Craigslist is a great resource for finding systems. As long as you check fairly frequently, you WILL find great deals.

and this route is the most fun.

if your Mom is available Fridays then see what you might be able to hit that day. Check the newspaper for Rummage Sales. A lot of times Churches will have theirs start on a Friday morning.

Pawn shops, ebay, thrift shops, garage sales (stupid people and their YARD sales), and craigslist are the best bet.

Use all the advice given but always keep one thing in mind.  Never get too serious that you cant apreciate what you find over what you didnt.  You'll find what you want eventualy but till then, just enjoy what you can get.  Untill you've got the funding to go crazy with, you shouldnt stress it too much.

Also, you should give me any TG16 stuff you find, it's been nearly 5 years sense I saw anything for it localy and wouldnt mind a few more games.
